Will not zero up and down

I took this out to zero on my AR-15 and I've got it perfect left and when things go right but the point of impact is about 4 inches too high. I have the front sight post unscrewed as far as it will go without falling out. There's no way to zero this

I don’t recommend

Not impressed: made of some sort of plastic; field of view through the sight is very small and difficult to quickly access target; a real pain to mount on the rail, must dismantle the front section and slide it down to where you want it rather than clamping directly onto it (picatinny rail).

Authentic and a great buy

These are authentic Magpul MBUS sights. I had 45 degree irons but decided to go back to these because I’ve had fantastic luck in the past. They flip up so they won’t interfere with scopes. I used camera flash to show details so it looks brighter than it is. It IS the same OD green that Magpul uses for all their stuff so it will match

Magpul stuff is always a bit high-priced, but you can't beat the quality

These are clearly top-of-the-line. Magpul makes no junk - and they charge a lot for quality. But when your life might depend on a product, then cost becomes less important. The supplied tool for adjusting the front sight makes that task far easier. This is precisely what I needed, and is well worth the extra dollars.

Genuine Magpul

Good price on a genuine Magpul item- some reviewers had encountered counterfeits.I think they are priced way too high for what they are- but they are very popular and work well.

As expected from Magpul. No real reason to go with an alternative since quality and function for price is great.

shipped and arrived fast. Authentic (some people have reported getting knock offs or airsoft versions before) and solid. Good sight to have cant go wrong. Wish I could find a good hivis front post to put in as my eyes have trouble finding and focusing on any solid front sight.Zeroed easily and seems to hold it even with considerable rounds put through and flipping up and down relatively often.

Good sights

It’s an MBUS. There’s not much to say about them. They’re light, they’re durable (polymer is more impact/drop resistant than metals), they’re easy to adjust, and they work.

As seen, accurate adjustments

Nice product
